Lyrics[]
Nagasaretakunai yo
Nagasareteku hou ga kantan sa, demo
Suki na koto wasurete
Atarashii yume toka mirenai
Itsuka mitsuketa takara no chizu wa
Ima demo "koko da yo" tte yubisashiteru
Sagashi ni ikou saa
Akogare o tada mezashite ike
Machigai janai nara mageru na yo
Shinjitai mono shinjitereba ii atsuku
Kimi no jounetsu chakasanai
Omotta mama de ii yo
Daremo inaku natta yuugure toki
Sabishisa yori ashita kanjiteta itsumo
Egaitetanda hikari dake
Yakedoshisou na akane no sora ni
Ame ni sarasarete mo
Yogorenai kimochi wa zettai ni aru
Donna ni ato datte
Hiroi agete mireba kagayaku
Omoidashiteru ano toki boku ni
Kibou o kureta to moshibi no seiza
Miageru dake ja
Mou nani mo kaesenai tsunagu tamashii
Kurikaesareteku monogatari
Terashite miseru no sa kondo wa dareka o
Kimi to dakara ikerunda
Hohoemiatta akane no naka de
Kawarenai jibun o semetari shinaide
Hontou no negai o misete
Ima nara kanau sa hitorigoto no you ni tsubuyaita
Shoumei surunda kanarazu dekiru tte
Fuan mo uchikudaite ima motto moe agare
Machigai janai kara magenai yo
Shinjitai mono shinjite iku no sa tsuyoku
Kakera ni natta tooi kako mo
Taisetsu ni dakishimete
Daremo inaku natta yuugure toki
Sabishisa yori ashita kanjiteku itsumo
Egaiterunda hikari dake
Yakedoshisou na akane gokoro de
流されたくないよ
流されてく方が簡単さ、でも
好きなこと忘れて
新しい夢とかみれない
いつか見つけた宝の地図は
いまでも「ココだよ」って指差してる
探しにいこう さあ
憧れをただ目指していけ
間違いじゃないなら曲げるなよ
信じたいもの信じてればいい 熱く
君の情熱茶化さない
思ったままでいいよ
誰もいなくなった夕暮れ時
寂しさより明日感じてた いつも
描いてたんだヒカリだけ
火傷しそうな茜の空に
雨に晒されても
汚れない気持ちは絶対にある
どんなに後だって
拾いあげてみれば輝く
思い出してる あの時僕に
希望をくれたともしびの星座
見上げるだけじゃ
もう何も返せない 繋ぐタマシイ
繰り返されてく物語
照らしてみせるのさ 今度は誰かを
君とだから行けるんだ
微笑み合った 茜の中で
変われない自分を責めたりしないで
本当の願いを見せて
いまなら叶うさ 独り言のように呟いた
証明するんだ 必ずできるって
不安も打ち砕いていま もっと燃えあがれ
間違いじゃないから曲げないよ
信じたいもの信じていくのさ 強く
欠片になった遠い過去も
大切に抱きしめて
誰もいなくなった夕暮れ時
寂しさより明日感じてく いつも
描いてるんだヒカリだけ
火傷しそうな茜心で
I don't want to let go
It's easier to walk away, but
If I let go of what I love,
I won't be able to see the new dreams that await me
The treasure map that I found one day
Still points to it, saying "here it is"
Let's go find it, c'mon
I'll chase after that longed-for dream
It's not a mistake, don't try to change it
Keep passionately believing in what you want to believe in
I won't mock your passion
Just do what you think is right
It got dark, and there was no one around
But I didn't feel alone; I felt accompanied by the tomorrow that came next
At that moment, the fiery red sky
Was being painted by the light
Even after being exposed to the rain,
My feelins remained clean
It's never too late to
Rise and begin to shine
I remember the constellation of stars
That gave me hope at the time
I'll walk while looking ahead
Even if I can't connect with my soul
The story repeats itself over and over again
But this time, if no one enlightens me, I want to be the one to do it
I was able to move forward because I was with you
Let's smile inside this bright red
Some things can't be changed, so don't blame yourself
Let me see your true desires
"I can make them come true now", you mutter to yourself
Prove it, prove that you can do it
Now that you've shattered your fears, you'll burn even hotter
This is no mistake, you won't make me change my mind
I'll firmly believe in what I want to believe in
Let's embrace our distant past,
Even if it's turned into fragments
It got dark, and there was no one around
But I didn't feel alone; I felt accompanied by the tomorrow that came next
Being drawn by the light,
My heart was dyed red hot and burned
